And you'd like to utilize either TuTu or Trilogy but are bummed about the changes done to animal/monster summoning and animate dead spells in BG2? I know I was.

You want Ding0s Tweak pack, currently on version 20. WeiDU compatible, can be installed after all other mods. The most important tweak is the very last one:
Yehaaw!
Also, has anyone ever finished the Ankheg culling quest in BG1? The lady wants you to kill 10 Ankhegs - I've been slaying dozens of them and she's never satisfied. I seem to remember finishing it when playing vanilla, so maybe of the mods accidentally broke it.

22: Ghreyfain's BG1-Style Summoning Spells(BG1Tutu Compatible!)
One of the first things that can be noticed in BG2 is how very weak the Monster Summoning X spells are. This component strives to bring things more in-line with how they were in BG1. Monster Summoning I will summon either 8 level 1 creatures, or 4 level 2 monsters. Monster Summoning II summons a total of 12 levels of monsters. That's either 6 level 2 monsters or 4 level 3 monsters. MS III will summon 16 levels. 5 level 3 creatures and a 1 level 1, or 4 level 4s, or 3 level 5s and a level 1 creature.
Animal summoning works in the same manner.
Animate Dead will summon 1 skeleton per level of the caster, and now they come equipped with a random variety of helms, shields, and weapons. They're also not green. At level 13, some of these skeletons are exchanged for a Skeleton Warrior, a more powerful ally.
This component will automatically remove the summoning cap if you have not already done so.
Yehaaw!
